Class Project

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.tools.ant.Project

All Implemented Interfaces:
  ResourceFactory

    public class Project

extends java.lang.Object
implements ResourceFactory

Central representation of an Ant project. This class defines an Ant project with all of its targets, tasks and various other properties. It also provides the mechanism to kick off a build using a particular target name.

This class also encapsulates methods which allow files to be referred to using abstract path names which are translated to native system file paths at runtime.
